IGN - There's potential here, but the development team needs more time.
TNS: “Nightmare fuel to say the least, check out the 10 most terrifying Silent Hill monsters, and what they symbolize.”
A breakdown of the best Silent Hill Characters that inspired and frightened gamers.
The sirens are sounding again, beckoning you back to the foggy ghost town as we rank all the Silent Hill games, from the chilling classics to the misguided missteps.
I mostly disagree with Downpour's position. Yeah, the game is not amazing by any stretch of the imagination but is much better than the HD Collection and Homecoming. The main issue is the performance, but that was mitigated by the patches, especially on the PS3. Personally, I put it a little behind Origins and The Room.
Having Restless Dreams as a different entry from Silent Hill 2 is also a choice.
Normally, we would not consider it a different game (Restless Dreams), but since it had a very different critical reception and had new content, it was allowed. As for Downpour, I would agree, but since that one is subjective, we let him make his case for the placement.
silent hill 2 is definitely the best one out of those.
for me personally, the whole ritual/cult stuff was always so weird to me in all the other games.
No disrespect but I put SH2 over 1. 1 is fantastic, but 2 took it all up a level.
no suprise..
Team Silent, please come back...and make Silent Hill games. These amateurs don't know what theyre doing lol.
This is not good. I keep hoping we will get a great silent hill game but doesn't look like it will happen. Hopefully downpour turns out for the better but one thing really bothered me when watching a clip. Why when you can interact with things they are glowing? That does not fit in a silent hill game. If downpour sucks... then O well still got the HD collection to look forward too
"but there was just no feeling of impact when you connected with an enemy body part..."
Oh man... I hope they can fix that. Give them weapons some POWA!
Edit: looks like the game was pushed to March 2012, according to those IGN comments.
first change the music.
